Strictly speaking, the car with which you propose to trail your Q might not be considered legal and probably would prevent you being able to hire a trailer. I had all this when I was hoping to trail my Beauford home but none of the local trailer hire companies would let me hire a trailer with anything less than an engine size of 3 litres. £1/mile sounds good as this was the best deal 5 years ago that I could get.
When I collected my Q from Stourbridge, I borrowed a trailer form a friend and used Trish's 1600 Toyota Carina. This really was a marginal case and anything greater than 60 mph up motorway hills was out simply on available power so I took pity on the car and kept the speed down.

I've been considering hiring a car transporter and bring it back that way (much preferred), or buying a towbar for my Focus and hiring a trailer for the day. Does anyone have any other suggestions / recommendations for hire companies?
